What is Niteharts Festival?

Niteharts Festival is the San Diego festival presented by ISOxo and Knock2. The 2026 edition runs three days, Friday 9 to Sunday 11 October, at Snapdragon Stadium in Mission Valley, with a dark, night-time look that sets it apart from the sunny Southern California festival norm. Entry is 18+, with 21+ for alcohol and VIP, and photo ID is checked at the gate.

The 2026 lineup is out. ISOxo, Knock2 and their ISOKNOCK project headline, joined by DJ Snake, Porter Robinson, RL Grime, Hamdi, Nitepunk, LYNY, Flava D, 2hollis, underscores, Jane Remover, Daine, Devault, Control Freak, borne, Frost Children, KimJ, swedm, Thaiboy Digital and Yaego: 22 names on the official lineup page as of 9 September 2026. Set times are published on the official schedule page.

Tickets sell through Front Gate Tickets. As of 9 September 2026 every tier, 1-day GA, 3-day GA and 3-day VIP, shows a waitlist; parking passes for Snapdragon Stadium are still on sale. Doors open at 3 pm on Friday, 2 pm on Saturday and 1 pm on Sunday, and the music runs to 11 pm on Friday and Saturday and 10 pm on Sunday.

Travel & Planning Guide

Getting to Niteharts 2026 at Snapdragon Stadium is the easiest large-festival commute in San Diego. The stadium sits in the Mission Valley neighborhood, walking distance from the SDSU Trolley Station (Green Line) and a 10-minute drive from downtown San Diego via I-8. Most people drive in from San Diego, Orange County or LA, or fly into San Diego International (SAN), about 15 minutes from the venue. Tijuana is 30 minutes south for international visitors.

There is no camping at Niteharts; this is a city stadium festival. The most convenient stays are Mission Valley hotels (Town and Country, DoubleTree, Embassy Suites) next to the stadium, or downtown San Diego hotels (Marriott Marquis, Manchester Grand Hyatt, Pendry) 10–15 minutes away. Mission Valley, the Gaslamp and Little Italy have the best food and post-festival nightlife within an easy rideshare.

Tip for first-timers: take the trolley. The MTS Green Line stops at the stadium, and a $2.50 fare beats every other option. Skip rideshare at peak entry, when surge pricing kicks in. If you drive, buy the official parking pass on Front Gate in advance. Eat real San Diego food before doors open; the Gaslamp restaurants are a short ride away. Bring sunscreen for the afternoon and a hoodie for after sundown.

What to Know Before You Go

🎫
Join the Waitlist

All three ticket tiers were on the waitlist on 9 September 2026. Join it on Front Gate Tickets, the official seller, and buy only there; a ticket from a stranger's story post is a gamble. Parking passes were still available on the same page.

🚇
Take the Trolley

The MTS Green Line stops at Snapdragon Stadium (SDSU station). A $2.50 fare beats rideshare surge pricing and the parking queue, and it pairs well with a downtown hotel. If you drive, buy the official parking pass in advance.

🏨
Mission Valley or Downtown

Mission Valley hotels (Town and Country, DoubleTree, Embassy Suites) are next to the stadium. Downtown San Diego hotels (Marriott Marquis, Manchester Grand Hyatt, Pendry) are 10–15 minutes away with better nightlife after the show. Both work.

🌤️
San Diego October Weather

Warm afternoons and cool evenings, and rain is rare. Bring sunscreen for the daytime sets, a light hoodie for after 9 pm, and comfortable closed-toe sneakers for stadium concrete.

🖤
Dress for the Dark, Inside the Rules

Black fits suit the festival's look: a black rave jersey, mesh, layers for the evening. Check the rules first: costume masks, LED gloves, glow sticks and spikes over half an inch are prohibited. Our custom rave jerseys come in unisex XS to 5XL and print any name or number on the back.
